Investing is like buying things and save them for later,so when its price is pretty much higher,you could sell it at time of need .for example buying gold and saving them is kind of investment.

Trading refers to exchanging,it may be goods or services,you make a deal with some one or risk your money in market in hope that it will give you some profit,so its giving and taking process simultaneously

In my opinion, Investing and Trading was different. Because when you investing, you trust your money to someone. And can't do anything with you money, until certain of time. While, when you trading, you used your knowledge and skill to rise up your profit. But to think investing and trading was both risky.

You didn't spend much time reading this topic, you can compare trading and investing. You can invest or save, if you wish to invest money you expect some return from that, so trading is investing. When ever you wish to make more money from money you already have that is investment, you can try to invest in trading or gambling, or in real estates, construction, patents, you name it, but in the end from starting money you wish to make profit. Investing in trading can be profitable or not, like any other investment, you nees to have good timing and to know when to buy and when to sell, when you learn to do that your investment in trading will be profitable.

though I know that I can search it in google but I want an answer from those people who have already experienced this two.Thank you.

I hope you can help me in my confusion..

the difference that if we invest we need to be analyzed the perfect whichever way to be able to gain profits in the long term. and if with trade we need to make a good strategy in order to get big profits.

Not only one strategy can help you get big profits, it is impossible. The scenario of the market can change anytime. So, you need to own few strategies for the scenarios can happen. Important, be ready the worst situation is required before starting to trading and investing.

yeah when you're investing basically is trust, because you will entrust your money to be grown by someone or a particular agency, the advantage of investing is you get the profit without having to do the job and you just sit and enjoy the result, the risk may be a scam or bankrupt, for trading you must have the skills and understand the market to be profitable here, the risk is price changes that do not match with your expectations

The main purpose is profit. So i see no difference between investing and trading. If you want to gain profit then you need patience. Trading and investing is purely patience. If you don't wait for the good time to buy - sell - trade then you will not get any profit from both.

Investing and Trading are of course 2 completely different things. The former is when you invest in crypto (for example) and let your money grow and earn profit in the hands of certain entity while the latter is a Do-It-Yourself scheme where you are are going to buy a certain coin in a lower price and sell it on a higher price to gain profit.

In my experience trading is short term investment and investment is long term. To be in detail trading has lot of risk and we need to keep watching what we invested and it react as per the market sentiments so we have to take the decision accordingly with close watching if we miss that timing we have to face the losses. In investment we are much safe and we will get time to take the decision without any panic and we already have the mind set to give some time for it. This is the difference between trading and investment.

Neither is more or less safe. And successful investing requires a large amount of effort and research, just like trading does. They're just different styles which differ based on their timescale (which is the one point that you have correctly pointed out).

Reading through the thread, I can see so many are getting the wrong notion here and the problem here is that most people do not even tend to understand what investment is and then they are saying trading is different from investment. So, firstly, I think it is better we sort that out first before I continue. These are not my meanings, it is according to the dictionary, so I will quote it instead.

Quote

1. expend money with the expectation of achieving a profit or material result by putting it into financial schemes, shares, or property, or by using it to develop a commercial venture.synonyms: put money into, provide capital for, fund, back, finance, subsidize, bankroll, underwrite; More

2. devote (one's time, effort, or energy) to a particular undertaking with the expectation of a worthwhile result.synonyms: spend, expend, put in, venture, speculate, risk

So, from the explanation above, and the way I see it, trading is a form of investment which apparently everyone already know the meaning. Investment is a very large field and there are so many things you can do that can be considered as investment as long as you are putting in funds and expecting some profit or return with certain risk involved. I really hope people end up getting this.

The difference in trading and investing is that in trading you want quick profits and you prefer buy n sell to make profits. While in investing you do make profits but mostly investments are longterm and you have to wait for the time. Also in investment lending also comes.. like you lend some one and recieve interests(if you like so).

Both of them do have the same goal, to grow assets. Indeed trading is often for short term investment but the more appropriate discription of the difference between investment and trading is investment is a condition in which the investor does not to run the business directly to gain profit because there are already other parties who run the business. So investors can not control or determine the target profit they want to get. In trading, investors will more active, so they are business man who must work by themselves to get target profit in a certain period.

Trading- You are an active buyer and seller of Bitcoin. You regularly check the price and trade in your advantage. Whenever you feel the price will go down, you will sell. And if you feel it will go up, you will hold or even buy more.

Investing- In investing you are more on holding for a long run investment. No matter how the market goes for the short run, your target is to keep it and sell it in the long run.

The main purpose is profit. So i see no difference between investing and trading. If you want to gain profit then you need patience. Trading and investing is purely patience. If you don't wait for the good time to buy - sell - trade then you will not get any profit from both.

both of which are aimed at making a profit but clearly different between trade and investment, where a person who trades must always experience the name of profits and losses because in trading we can sell or buy something to get a faster profit, another case with the form of investment where one can investing his money to earn profits in the long run or for the future.

Trading is buying and selling stocks or crypto coins either in a long term basis or in a short term which is termed as day trading.It could be even done with a very small amount of money.It is highly risky and also gives huge profits.Here,we are free to sell or hold our stock or coins and we have full control.

Investment is usually done on a long term basis.Once we invest our money,we would have to wait until the maturity period to withdraw our invested money.It has less risks and also yields low profits.Short term fluctuations in the market does not affect our investment.

However, an investor investing follow a plan has prepared usually get profits than take loss like day trader.Sometimes, they need to spend a lot of time to wait the price of stock or cryptocurrency increases, but it isn't important, they have accepted this requirement before starting to invest.

I hope you can help me in my confusion..

the difference between trading and investment is when we have money and you make investments then your money just silent and wait for the price to go up, but if you use it with trading also then your assets will increase with lot without having to wait long.

If you do not have to say that I can sell it when you get the appropriate conditions, you are risking it with small profit margins. It can win you or lose you, but when you invest it,

If you are not ready for the risk you cannot win the profit because all the things are having the risk now there are a lot of the things that people are investing the money and they are having the profit, I use to buy the bitcoin and I want to hold the bitcoin for the long time, bitcoin is giving the people awareness about the profit and taking the risk, the price and the importance of the bitcoin is the best thing for people, I hold the bitcoin and I am not going to lose my money,

If your investments are risky you don't know what you are doing.

Understanding all outcomes and choosing a path that won't cause losses is what investing is about. Everything else is gambling.
